Reagan at the U.N.: Cheers and FoldedRands
io=ce?
By RICHARD BERNSTEIN
SpeoP, The New York Times
adATIONS, N.Y., Sept. 28 ?
Delegates without eats stood six or
seven deep along the sides of the large,
greA; carpeted assembly hall. Demon-
strators chanted outside. Warm ap-
Owe greeted the President of the
United States as he was introduced to
the 158 member nations of the General
Assembly, though, it was widely noted,
the fcfur members of the Soviet delega-
tiou' dip, not clap their hands. *
The were all elements of the scene
herchi, s morning as President Reagan
addressed the 38th session of the Gen-
erakAssembly, There was excitement
t a
in the air as the delegates pressed into
the hall to hear Mr. Reagan. After-
ward, they gathered in anteroom
clutches to discuss and comment on the
speech.
"It was a very impressive contribu-
tion and it was delivered in an elegant
manner and with great sincerity," said
Sahabzada Yaqub Khan, the Foreign
Minister of Pakistan. "It was designed
to reduce tensions at a time when the
situation is inflamed."
Poland's chief representative to the
United Nations, Wlodzimierz Natorf,
commented: "It was a little bit milder
than usual, but there was nothing new
from the point of view of substance.
OR
Again, there was all the anti-Commu-
nist and anti-Soviet rhetoric, all the
false information without any proof
about the non-fulfillment of treaties by
the Soviet Union."
Soviet Comment
Encountered briefly in the delegates
lounge, a Soviet representative, Rich-
ard S. Oyinnikov, was asked why the
Soviets did not applaud the American
President.
"Why should we?" he asked, then
added, 'Were you astonished?"
Asked to comment on the speech, he
said, "It seemed to be a sugar-coated
deployment." Mr. Ovinnikov did not
elaborate, but he seemed to be refer-
ring to the President's Criticism of the
Soviet Union even while expressing an
American willingness to be "more flex-
ible" in arms reduction talks.
Mr. Reagan's speech, which opened
the working portion of the assembly
session, was followed by addresses by
delegates from Brazil, the Philippines,
Venezuela, and eight other countries.
While Mr. Reagan was at the united
Nations, groups of demonstrators both
for and against the President held up
signs and shouted through loudspeak-
ers outside.
Conspicuously Empty Spots
Inside the assembly chamber, most
of the delegates' seats were occupied.
But there were a few conspicuously
empty places at the tables of the Cuban
and the Afghan delegations..
At the Soviet table, the chair for the
delegation's head was also empty,
presumably because Andrei A. Gromy-
ko, the Soviet Foreign Minister and
Deputy Prime Minister, decided not to
come after he could not get permission
to land at Newark or Kennedy Interna-
tional Airport in a Soviet jet.
The Soviet delegation ' listened
through headphones without express-
ing reaction to the speech. At the end,
the Soviet Ambassador tO Washington,
Anatoly F. Debrynin, who sat with the
Soviet delegation, leafed through
papers while most of the other diplo-
mats present applauded Mr. Reagan.
After the speech, in the lounge but-
side the assembly hall, Prince Noro-
dom Sihanouk, the fprmer monarch of
Cambodia, was asked to comment on
Mr. Reagan's speech. He said, "His
feelings are so noble and his proposals
are very reasonable."
Arab League Remark
Dr. Clovis Maksoud, the Arab
League's permanent observer to the
United Nations, said Mr. Reagan "to-
tally glossed over the Middle East."
One well-noticed part of the Presi-
dent's speech were his references to
the group of more than 100 countries
that espouse nonalignment. Mr. Rea-
gan said in his speech that the move-
ment is important, but criticized it for
admitting pro-Soviet countries.
"We face the Same accusation from
the Soviet Union when they speak on
nonalignment," said Mahmoud ,Abo,u1- I
Nasr, United Nations Ambassador
from Oman.
